Bleeding heart

After seeing a few of you post bleeding heart photos, it made me realize how much I missed the one we left behind at our old house ten years ago. So when we went to the lilac festival the other day we bought a plant. This photo is of one of the ones blooming in their garden, though. I have to go find mine because I forgot to ask DH where he decided to plant it.
